This is my second case as well. I picked up the first one at a flea market a couple years back.

So far so good.

The initial price was $40, which I wasn't willing to pay anyway, but told the guy I was still at least interested. Apparently I was #2 in his email queue and the first guy fell through. He relisted his post at $30 and emailed me to explain the situation and the new price. After a bit of bartering -- bada-bing!

I didn't exactly "find" it per se, but I'm excited anyway. Ordered my GBA copy of Qwak last week... should be in soon. Limited edition of 300 copies! $25 (includes international shipping).

A few days ago I bought an UNOPENED copy of Sonic Adventure 2 for the Sega Dreamcast (R.I.P.)... for $3.
I sold it yesterday for $50 to a friend, knowing I could have gotten more. :)

Thanks for the tip!

Man, if there were any Kmarts left around here I'd pick one up. I haven't gotten the game yet.

I could see about getting you one when I go to get my second on Friday, there were about three copies still there when I left.
